"Mom, I'm okay. Stop trying to find me."

"Where are you? Do you know how scared I was when I saw you weren't at the hospital?"

"I'm fine. I won't let anything happen to me."

Sydney exhaled deeply. "Okay, I'll give you some space to think things over. Take as long as you need, but promise me you'll stay safe and won't do anything rash."
